On Oct. 1, the history department at DU hosted their annual trivia night with a new addition—the food pathways exhibition, highlighting research done by history students. This event provided students with a chance to test their trivia skills, as well as honor and view the research projects from this past summer’s Food Pathways in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans Internship 2026 supervised  by Dr. Trishula Patel.
